Background and Objective: Positive thinking believes that positive emotions and abilities are the best factors for preventing psychological trauma. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of positivity training on anxiety tolerance, sleep quality, and resilience in older women in Kermanshah.
Methods: This semi-experimental study was performed based on a pre-test-post-test design with a control group. The statistical population of the current study was all older women in Kermanshah. Thirty women were selected using the convenience sampling method and were randomly divided into two groups (15=experimental group and 15=control group). Data were collected using the distress tolerance scale, sleep quality scale, and Neill and Dias’s resilience scale. First, a pre-test was administered to both groups, next, the positivity training was performed in the experimental group, but the control group did not receive any intervention. Then, a post-test was administered to both groups, and the data were statistically analyzed using SPSS 20.
Findings: The results of the analysis of covariance showed that positivity training had a significant effect on sleep quality and resilience in older women in Kermanshah.
Conclusion: This study indicated that positivity training was an effective intervention for the elderly. Due to the increase in the number of elderly people in Iran, positivity training can be effective in increasing their quality of life.
